MTD Kingston Heir 4-String Electric Bass

The MTD Kingston Heir basses were designed for the player looking for an aggressive yet extremely versatile instrument. Using the same large pole, dual humbucking pickups as the Kingston Artist in addition to an exposed pole "J" bass pick up, the Heir can grind and bite or simply serve up the warm classic sounds bassists cherish. Like all MTD Kingston Series instruments, the Heir incorporates many superior design elements found on MTD's revered American instruments. It is carefully constructed using high quality Ash, Eastern Hard Rock Maple and beautifully adorned with a Flamed maple top.

"A great bass for rock and metal!"

Sound:
This bass guitar is eally well suited for playing metal and hard rock. The notes are crisp and resonant due to the ash body. As someone who plays the boundaries of jazz-rock fusion, it holds a lot of promise depending on amplifier settings and adjustments that I intend to make to pickup heights.
Feature:
The treble, mid and bass equalizers provide an interesting set of variables with which to play - a lot more to explore than my sweet old P-bass.
It'll be a while before I find out what I like and don't like.
Ease of Use:
The big plus with this instrument is the action! It accommodates my playing style extremely well. Sixteenth notes are as well defined as longer ones.
Quality:
This bass is well crafted!
Value:
This definitely worth more than what I anticipated. It was sold as "blemished". I haven't found the blemish.
Manufacturer Support:
I have not dealt with this manufacturer before.
The Wow Factor:
Asthetically, it's a handsome instrument.
Overall:
Any instrument that would replace this one, would have to have as much "bottom end" as this one has "top end".
For studio work, this bass provides all the definition I could ever want along with excellent playability.
